Regardless of past troubles and allegedly sus deals, this plan is progressive and good for the area. If It all goes to plan, its going to a fantastic space for the public to enjoy. I think this will really utilize the tram stop to its full potential as a premier destination to enjoy on the limited ...

Festival Towers 1 & 2 will have very limited parking, are very close (as close as you can get) to the railway station that all lines in Adelaide feed into, is close to the tram stop, bus stops, people can walk or cycle or walk along the river. It will be six star energy rated, and companies mov...

Greens calling Adelaide "legoland" because of this development is going to backfire. Everyone loves lego, and a legoland sounds great. Why does the media give them a voice, they're a literally socialists hiding like cowardly pigs behind a shallow and hollow green agenda. They have like 2 ...

This is really a couple of key parts: There is also the option for 3,000 square metres of public civic space across four levels which could, the government said, be used for cultural events and performances. The state government said Walker Corporation has a "long lease" on the land. But U...

Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Metro Trains

Isn't the rail lease holder supposed to maintain the line in working condition? If so, it shouldn't be an issue to run a special service. That was how the deal was presented at the time, to reduce backlash from giving up the line, but it's well known that there has been no enforcement of that condi...

agree about the Weatherill era, he was a great Premier. Rebuilding Adelaide Oval in particular has been the most transformational project for this city in decades. I don't think this is true, Adelaide Oval and the push towards renewables was kick-started by the Rann/Foley government. I feel that th...

What do we, the public, as owners of the land, get out of this deal? We've chipped in $220 million to pretty the plaza and prime rents for Walker in now two overheight towers on public land. Do we get reimbursed? Will Walker contribute to a concert hall or upgrade to Festival Centre? What's our ROI...
